'Socialist,' 'Muslim' — Ugly reception for Obama (North Carolina Folks Slam Obama's Visit)
Politico ^ | Oct 19th | By POLITICO STAFF

Posted on 10/19/2008 4:43:21 PM PDT by DrHannibalLecter

Barack Obama's stop at Cape Fear BBQ and Chicken in Fayetteville, N.C. The trip, according to a pool report, offered “some powerful and at times ugly interaction.” Many patrons applauded as he walked into the diner, but Diane Fanning, 54, began yelling “Socialist, socialist, socialist — get out of here!” Fanning said she’d heard that former Secretary of State Colin Powell had endorsed Obama but said that “Colin Powell is a RINO, R-I-N-O, Republican In Name Only.” Later, Obama came to the long table where Fanning and other members of a local First Presbyterian church were gathered. He held out his hand to her and asked, “How are you, ma’am?” but she declined to shake his hand.

Lol! DStarr does expose the truth in a way that makes the Code Pinkos see red.

A code-pinko was roaming the neighbourhoods here last week, dressed in a brown suit with a narrow pink stripe. So Mr. Taxrelief asked her if she worked for UPS. She said “no” that she was “canvassing for Obama”. So he said (observing the narrow pink pinstripe on her suit), “Are you Code Pink?” “yes!” she said.

“We know Susie “Medea” Benjamin very well,” he said, winking.

He smiled and then walked into a friend’s house with a clearly diplayed McCain/Palin sign. They said the expression on her face was pure confusion.

I love the fact that she refused to shake his hand.

I see it as entirely appropriate, and an excellent symbol of how the electorate should treat such vermin who sit in the pews of a Farrakhan Leghorn such as Jeremiah Wright for 20 years—not to mention the countless other nefarious collaborations with foreign and domestic enemies of America that Hussein has cultivated over the years.

People in Fayetteville are proud supporters of the free enterprise system . I am very glad to see America's Guard of Honor , the 82nd Airborne , still has a good community behind it.

For the first time in my adult life I can actually say I am proud of my hometown.

My liberal Brother in Law and I were working on a rental property when a neighbor with cancer approached us and asked for a few bucks. My BIL didn’t have any money on him but I pulled out my wallet and gave the guy a five.

After the neighbor left us, my BIL says, “that was a liberal thing for you to do.” I said, “No, I did the conservative thing and your doing the liberal thing by trying to take credit for it.”

You should have seen the look on his face!

Civility is all well and good.

Would you shake hands with Hitler? bin Laden? Ahmadinijad? Saddam Hussein? Manson?

Okay, you say, that’s another league. Are you sure?

How about Lenin, Ayers, Benedict Arnold?

the slippery slope to socialism. the original income tax: levying a 1% tax on net personal incomes above $3,000, with a 6% surtax on incomes above $500,000

Obama loves to make sure the unborn are killed, even when they survive the abortions he finds “fundamental,” along with Planned Parenthood.

No, I’m proud of her for refusing to make nice with the abortion advocate.

As was posted earlier this week in an op-ed piece by the Bishop of Denver, tolerance is not a Christian virtue, it is an evil to tolerate evil, and we should stop being polite out of a misguided sense of manners.

bump ... O doesn't deserve a handshake or civility for what he wants to do to this country. He does however have a right to advocate it; which is repugnant in the extreme.

He has a Right to Life; not a Right to Courtesy.

Amen. I wouldn’t shake his hand and if he knocked on my front door, I’d tell him to get off my property.

  Yes... that was certainly a foothold for socialism. You can find the original 1040 on the net and it looks so simple. Now it's horrendous.

Hurray - one of my early vanities was “You do not have the right not to be offended.” (About Judge Moore in Alabama.)

It was mentioned on one of the CBS ‘entertainment’ news spots last week. I should have looked before I said anything because now I can’t find it.

Here ya go. I was beginning to think I imagined it.

[snip]Quinnell’s daughter, whom the syndicated television show did not identify, said her mother has received death threats. The family has told Quinnell not to say anything to anyone or grant interviews.

He will probably fail miserably and his appeasement will probably lead to a catastrophic regional war if not worse.

You have to realize actions have consequences. They are trying to marginalize any opposition to obama by painting us as crazed right wing lunatics and bigots. Going berserk on him only helps them more.

The fence sitting public will read this and conclude that this lady was being bonkers to the polite and reasonable Obama that the media is portraying him as.

Note that Joe the Plumber did not get in Obama’s face or scream at him. He shook Obama’s hand and politely but firmly asked him why he wanted to punish his success.

Who do you think has had more effect, JTP or “Crazed Lady at BBQ Joint Accosts Sen. Obama” ?

As for shaking his hand, I think I would paste a big dopy grin on my face and stick out my left hand.
